46 vic councils move to 100% renewable energy! This has been an amazing project to be involved in over 5 years & so glad that 12 @CVGA_VIC councils are part of this impressive partnership. Well done to all for getting this over the line, councils, alliances and @CityofDarebin

*Announcement* Today I launched the $3 million Neighbourhood Battery Initiative. We’re providing grants for trial projects to deliver neighbourhood-scale batteries that soak up solar power and help communities take control of their energy. https://t.co/nN310mcXR4

Some good tips here. One of my bugbears for many many years is the prevalence of dark coloured roofs in new housing. There is a lot of out of date confusion out there that dark coloured roofs are better for southern australia, not true. https://t.co/hirMZdmaqN

@lormsbywilliams Best person to speak to would be our EO, @RobLawCVGA. He is on leave at the moment, so probably not available til next week.

Another AGM done and dusted... 2020 style. Thanks to our Board, working group and member councils for a great year of projects, advocacy and knowledge sharing.

[Ironbark Sustainability @Ironbarksustain]

Our last webinar for the year should be a good one - join us & our special guests from @beyondzeronews and @Mayors4Climate to find out everything you need to know about science-derived community emissions reduction targets: https://t.co/WCvEo9EYOW #localgov

This #localgov resource pack from @EVCouncil is well worth a look if you're in the sector and looking for some policy tips and case studies on #ElectricVehicles: https://t.co/umDuDTKZl0

(Finally) some good news for #EV drivers in Victoria this week.

Penalties to prevent ICEing means that charging infrastructure is available to those who need it, when they need it.
